Isn't mingw32 another solution for this?

definitly, yes.

The cygwin32 UNIX API which operates on top of the standard Win32 API is
linked in the cygwin.dll (since b19 called cygwinb19.dll) dynamic
loadable library.

So the .dll file must we within the PATH environment variable or local
exe file directory. I haven't heard o an option avoiding this, i.e.
compiling the cygwin32 dll to the exe file.
